Have you ever had a savory crepe? I love them! These Spinach & Creamy Chicken Crepes are so flavorful and delicious! The crepe batter is filled with fragrant herbs and are cooked to perfection. The crepes are then stuffed with a creamy chicken and spinach blend, and topped with a creamy white sauce. YUM! Make it with me.
Crepes are often thought of as sweet. I love a sweet crepe stuffed with nutella, fresh strawberries, and whipping cream! But crepes are so fun to make into a savory dish as well! You can transform a delicious breakfast idea to a decadent dinner dish! These Spinach and Creamy Chicken Crepes are the perfect blend of savory flavors. The crepe batter itself is made with fresh herbs such as thyme and rosemary. You can see the green speckles in the crepe.
The cream sauce that is poured over the crepes at the end is what really ties this dish together. The cream sauce is made with heavy cream, lemon juice, white wine, and thyme. It has such a dreamy flavor and it pairs perfectly with the spinach and chicken.
I use a crepe maker to cook up my crepes. It makes cooking crepes super easy and it’s fun for the whole family! Something about using the wooden spreader for the batter makes you feel like you’ve taken a day trip to France. I bought my crepe maker on Amazon.
